3rdJuly 2025, London: RCK Partners, announces the expansion of its business operations to Ireland, marking a significant step in its growth and commitment to serving businesses with high quality tax advice.
Ireland is a leading innovation hub, with strong R&D investment across the country which has led to the country being home to a substantial number of pioneering businesses. RCK is entering the market to support these Irish based businesses to meet their ambitions by providing them with true specialist R&D tax credit expertise. The expansion will allow RCK to meet existing client demands for those who have a presence in Ireland and to better serve clients across multiple geographies.
The Irish business operations will be led by Kirsten Winsryg, an experienced R&D management accountant, whose expertise will support the launch of RCK into the market with a focus on R&D consulting services.
On the expansion, James Gibson, CEO, said:
“Due to our existing success with the UK marketplace, we always had ambitions to grow the business geographically. We are proud to be entering the Irish market to provide better support to innovative businesses to encourage greater R&D investment in the country. We’re looking forward to working with Irish businesses and the highly skilled workforce based here and I’m delighted Kirsten has come on board to support this expansion.”
Kirsten Winsryg, R&D consultant and lead of RCK Ireland operations, said:
"Having spent over 10 years working in the R&D industry, I am delighted to be joining RCK as it launches into the Irish market and to take on the role of leading our efforts there. I’ve seen first hand the positive impact R&D can have on Irish businesses, and I am excited to work with many more to foster innovation and growth."
RCK has experienced significant growth in recent years, recently celebrating its fifth anniversary and appointing James Gibson as its new CEO, and this expansion into Ireland underscores its position as a leader in specialist tax consultancy and its next phase of growth.
